Horrible news and way to die. He was coming out of that tunnel way too fast in a powerful sports car. Seeing the video was tough, because even if they lived, they would've definitely had some serious long term health issues due to that impact.
I don't trust Aspyr to not screw this up. I really wish another more competent company could handle these ports. They are some really good games and deserve the best treatment possible for a new audience
Once the honeymoon phase was over, the true testament of the Switch 2 would come. It's an okay system but something a lot of people don't feel they must rush out to buy. With the economy being in trouble, a lot of people are tightening their wallets for more important things such as food, shelter, clothing, etc... A lot of parents definitely aren't spending close to a grand or more on a game system, games, accessories, and a subscription service.
@PikminMarioKirby One of the most sensible and fact based comments on here. It'll anger some fanboys but it's the truth. Nintendo looks at itself as the Apple of gaming and think its products deserve premium pricing. No game should be $80 plus dollars in my opinion. And charging so much for plastic figures that cost a few dollars to make is also asinine. Some people will inevitably say, "You're not forced to buy anything they out put!" That's true but Nintendo had a reputation on being family friendly with pricing. I get it that things charge with market conditions, better tech, etc... But some of the stuff Nintendo is doing is clearly coming from a place of greed. There's absolutely no reason they should've charged for a tech demo. There's no reason a new Pokemon game should be full price and the quality hasn't drastically changed for the better compared to previous games. These are just my opinions and I'm glad others aren't blinded by the love they have for this company to not acknowledge some serious issues
If this happens it's going to make the Game Key cards defenders look very foolish. Nintendo could've/should've done this from the beginning. This media anti consumer and another way to wrestle control and ownership away from consumers.
DLC that was clearly cut from the main game and it's not even that good. Another scummy move from Nintendo but some people will defend them as usual.π
@Emacster Apples to oranges comparison. MK World sales are inflated because of it being bundled with the Switch 2 and it was the only worthwhile first party launch title. After the honeymoon phase a lot of people have complained about it lacking compared to previous MK games and the open world not being fully utilized. Sonic Racing selling over a million copies isn't nothing to scoff at. It's a really good game and a lot of people think it's better than World
Nintendo first party games weren't docked for charging for upgrades. It's kind of ridiculous that Sonic Racing has the upgrade cost as a con in my opinion.π Seems like a nitpicky way to stop from scoring this game on par with MK World.
@slowpoke_tail It's more than likely going to be a drip feed. The Virtual Boy library is small and I can see Nintendo trying to stretch it out over a year.
COD is dying and they are desperate to keep it alive. People are finally waking up and choosing to spend their money and time wisely instead of on more slop like COD games. And Microsoft lied about bringing the series to Nintendo platforms. They needed to get the deal approved and said anything to make regulators happy. Nintendo fans shouldn't be upset about the series not coming back to Nintendo platforms. Much better games to spend your money on
I expected him to be in it the way Capcom was being coy about it. I'm interested to see how he fits in the storyline. Leon was there in Raccoon City during the outbreak/nuking and now he's back years later for the aftermath. A full circle moment. Maybe he will be a mentor to Grace?
@DollyrotsFan1 Exactly. I just want these cowards to say it. They're racist, misogynistic, and ignorant. The world is too massive and amazing to just cater to one demographic. We would think by now some people would realize that. But they would rather stew in hatred.π
A DF article is always funny to me. If they don't outright praise something, the fanboys will lose it and question their credibility. If they give it high marks all is well.ππ They are one of the best channels on YouTube when it comes to technical analysis of software and hardware in my opinion.
@Bootlicker333 It's about using common sense with people who are clearly unhinged. I've seen videos of Pokemon card scalpers literally assaulting other people over these cards.π Nobody deserves to be hurt over some cardboard. It's ridiculous and shows how far society keeps falling.
I just don't get it. Threatening people over pieces of cardboard is just ridiculous and pathetic to me. Scalpers and immature people have practically ruined every hobby.
This game caught my attention from the first trailer. I'm really feeling the vibes/aesthetics of it. Glad to see it's pretty good and not just about the visuals. I'm definitely going to get it at some point in the future
Good old Ubisoft "quality". When will some people learn to stop expecting the best from this company?π Besides, Ubisoft games aren't worth buying at launch for full price. Just wait a few months for a sale and the issues to be ironed out
When I first saw 'Welcome Tour's, I knew it had GOTY potential.π₯Ή But seriously, Cronos is my personal GOTY. It really surprised me with how good it turned out and I love it.
@kfflscnt Massive layoffs are definitely happening when/if this deal is approved. That's not including the price hikes to consumers with Netflix, HBO Max, etc... Massive deals like this don't happen without consequences for anyone who isn't a shareholder. I'm sure some people will be happy with this deal and that's ridiculous in my opinion. This is going to be bad for consumers and employees of these companies. Seems like nothing was learned with the Microsoft and Activision merger.π
@burninmylight Yep. These people are so ridiculous and pathetic. Anything with diversity enrages them which I find hilarious.π And it's always a red flag when someone yells about "protecting" children.π Those are the ones who usually have something incriminating on their hard drives and browser history. It's pretty much inevitable at this point
With the corrupt administration in America I'm sure this deal will get approved for the right bribe. This is huge news and it's going to have a ripple effect in the entertainment industry. I'm curious to see how it all turns out.
I've played around with one but still see no reason to upgrade from my Switch OLED. I'm content as of now and will wait for the inevitable revision that hopefully has better battery life and more memory
An 80 MC score is about right in my opinion. It's a good game but clearly has issues. My personal score would be a 7. After the amazing Dread I expected so much more from Prime 4 and it's been a bit disappointing.
It's really cool looking and I'm honestly shocked with the price. $200 for a figure still isn't cheap in my opinion but I expected something like this to start at $500. It's very detailed
@Dalamar Exactly.π It's always hilarious seeing some people lose their minds over DF. Their entire thing is breaking down games/software to the micro level. Just the facts. Some people take things way too seriously and act like it's a personal attack on them
@HammerKirby You're asking ridiculous fanboys to be reasonable and that'll never happen. Unless DF completely praises everything Nintendo related, they'll always be angry with any critique of this company and its products
